Bug#587064: RFA: uncertainties -- Python module for calculations with uncertainties



Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I request an adopter for the uncertainties package.

The package description is:

uncertainties is a Python module, which allows calculations such as

(0.2 +/- 0.01) * 2 = 0.4 +/- 0.02

to be performed transparently; much more complex mathematical expressions involving numbers with uncertainties can also be evaluated transparently.

Correlations between expressions are correctly taken into account; x-x is thus exactly zero, for instance. The uncertainties produced by this module are what is predicted by error propagation theory.
